Kylie POV
I stared at the maid as if she had grown two heads. Or was she joking? “What?” I asked, wondering if I imagined her saying things. My voice was louder
She winced and repeated, “Miss Zoe Mueller is here to see you. She is waiting for you in the main hall.”
Dread knotted in my stomach as surprise flickered in me. I didn’t expect Zoe to come to see me a day before the ball. I was sure that she would come with Graham. “Has Alpha Graham come with her?”
“No, Luna Kylie,” she said, now a little nervous. “She is here with four gammas.”
Her arrival was odd. I could sense it, but my mind went back to what happened last night when I was with Alpha Logan and suddenly it occurred to me s
Swallowing my fear down my throat, I said, “Please ask her to wait. I’ll be there soon.”
The maid bowed to me and left. I sent a message to Katy about it and copied the same to Shir and Fenris. I knew that Alpha Logan must already know about her visit. Whenever a guest entered a pack’s te

After taking a long bath in which I pondered over how to tackle her, I came out and took time to dress. I knew that this was going to irritate her, but then, if I went too quickly, she would think that I feared her. When I re
As soon as Zoe saw me, she got up with a broad smile. “Luna Kylie,” she chirped. “I was sent by Alpha Graham a day earlier to check on how you were
I raised my eyebrow. “So that was what you wanted to check on? Where I was living? Shouldn’t you check that for yourself? And the last I checked, you
She cringed. “Luna Kylie, you are too harsh. I have come here despite my pregnancy just to see you and yet you are so mean,” she said that loudly for o
I rolled my eyes because by now I was used to her antics. “Why?” I asked. From the corner of my vision, I could see Katy suppressing a smile as Fenris and Shir tensed up.
“Why?” Zoe said, confused. “I’m sorry I didn’t get your question.”
I crossed my arms across my ch*st . “Why did you come? It wasn’t needed. I am the Luna and coming here to tell me you wanted to check up on me means you are insulting me. And who are you to insult me?”
Tears welled in her eyes immediately. “Luna Kylie, I am so sorry, but I never wanted to upset you. Alpha Graham wanted me to come here today, and tha
“How dare you take my name with that tongue of yours?” Alpha Logan’s loud growl sounded in the hall, making everyone shake in fear.
Zoe turned sharply to look at him. “Alpha Logan!” she cowered I was just- I mean-”
“Shut up!” he snapped, glaring at her. My eyes landed on him and I saw his fangs sl*pping out. I have no idea, but tingles spread on my skin after seeing standing right next to him, staring at Zoe with narrowed eyes. Hearing his loud growl, Gamma Andrew also came running down, along with a few warrior
“Gamma Shir, on whose authority have you allowed her to enter my main hall? Is she your Luna? Do you allow anyone to enter your Alpha’s house witho
Shir gulped. He had never seen Alpha Logan so angry. “Alpha Logan, apologies. Actually, Alpha Graham sent her on his behalf.” Zoe started shaking un
“Just like he would send any other member of his pack, right?”
“Right, Shir replied.
“Gamma Andrew!” Alpha Logan said. “Escort the guest to a living quarter outside the house.”
My jaw dropped because a living quarter outside meant Zoe would live along with the omegas who served the household. Zoe paled. She started bawlin
He narrowed his eyes at her. “Even servants get pregnant! Now leave.”
Gamma Andrew was beside her in a flash of a second. He escorted her out, but Zoe threw a hateful glare at me before leaving. I saw her taking her pho
The moment she left, Alpha Logan came to me. “Are you okay?” he asked, his voice turning gentle.
“I am fine,” I replied with a smile. “But you’ve created a bigger mess.”
Katy laughed. “I’ll take care of her if you like.”
I shook my head. “No, I will take care of her. She has come here to spy on me. Isn’t it obvious?”
Alpha Logan cocked his eyebrow and asked. “What are you planning, Kylie?”
I winked and gave him a mischievous smile. “Wait and watch. Can you give me a car today?”
“I can give you my kingdom.”
“Oh, please!” Katy snapped. “Get a room, you two.”
“We already got one,” Alpha Logan replied, giving me a crooked smile, and I blushed.
“F**k me!” she said, exasperated, and left. And surprisingly, Ace followed her, murmuring something about kingdoms and
wolves.
When Katy left, Alpha Logan said, “I don’t trust Zoe around you. So I am going to send a few warriors also for you.” With a few warriors, I didn’t know tha
I had gone to Zoe’s room to ask her to join me for the Golden Gate project. She looked at me with wide eyes. “Are you going for that?” she asked.
“Yes,” I shrugged, “You wanted to see how I am doing. There’s no better way of seeing me in action. Come on. After all, she had to report back to Alpha
The fact that I had so many witnesses added to my advantage.
“Will Alpha Logan join us?” she asked, trying to keep my pace behind me as we headed to the driveway.
“No.”
When we reached the project site, Zoe’s expressions were priceless. “Are we going to walk around this place?” she asked, horrified, looking at the vast expanse of a dry field with a few tumbleweeds rolling around.
“Yep!” I smiled.
It was a small victory but was overshadowed by what happened at dinner in the evening.
